The truly alarming thing is just how bad the current clutch of high-rise design proposals is, each trying harder than the next to outshine its neighbours with ever more elaborate peaks and kaleidoscopic cladding treatments, with no idea how to meet the ground or create a meaningful urban street.
The architecture at MediaCity has been criticised by the editor of Building Design magazine Ellis Woodman, who describes it as "a crazed accumulation of development in which every aimlessly gesticulating building sports at least three different cladding treatments.
Experimental results indicate that wear performance depended on cladding orientation and normalizing treatment.
The extent to which cladding powders and post-treatment that affects the wear resistance of the clad layer is also studied.
In this study, the effects of cladding direction, preheating and post heat treatment on microstructural and mechanical properties of laser cladded rail repairs are presented.
There is an abundance of zinc cladding.
Building after building sports a bit of copper cladding.
Adam: Foundation, waterproofing, cladding, yes about that.
The choice of cladding materials was surprisingly important.
